I love going to this place. They have great prices on veggies and frozen food. They are also a great place for snacks and seasoning. They have a large house wares area that has beautiful dishes and products that make life more convenient. Like today I picked up a small shower stool for only $8. They also have great events here like for the lunar new year. I also stop in regularly for their to go sushi.

Stocked up on sweet potato and mung bean noodles, bok choi, Taiwanese goodies like Apple cider, frozen mantou, frozen wrap to make dan bing. The rambutan was on sale and sadly all sold out. One aisle is medical teas, its amazing. Try the local snack bar, the sweets are like traveling through SE Asia street food, pork belly and rice, veg, spring rolls, for savory.

YOU WILL NEVER GET A REFUND!!!!customer service is REALY REALLY bad. If there is minus stars I could give that.I usually shop here (till now not ever again) and I bought Yacca root almost $7 worth out of my almost $50 bill. Next day I was trying to cook it, it was super bad and I called them to get a refund over the phone if I give the transaction number. But the lady who answered told me to bring the product and I might get a refund. I said I am 25 mins away from your store and I don’t want to come over only for $7 by wasting my time and gas. She said it’s up to me to get the refund or not and without looking the product they can’t help me out. (Now you can see the product in Google reviews) I know POM is not a big marketing chain but you should be kind to your customers when you talk to them no matter what. I just gave up explaining my side to her and hung up. Hope you will have better customer service one day than now.

Literally my favorite store, I go here for fun and always end up spending way more than I should have! So many sweets and drinks and ingredients for all kinds of Asian food, I cook a lot at home, this place supplies me!

Be careful how they advertise their products. It says Know brand quick macaroni on sale but doesn’t mention only one flavor has discount. I took 9 packs and found they all haven’t discount. The manager said the barcode under the price is the only specific flavor has discount. The problem is who will check the barcodes if it listed ‘Know Brand quick macaroni’ on sale. Another group of ppl also tried to get many pack of it when I returned to the shelve taking the photo. I told them only one flavor has discount and they were shocked too cos they didn’t expect that. False advertising and bad service!

Big selection of pretty much everything. Prices are similar to H Mart. If you’re having trouble finding something, asking an associate is the best way to go. Staff is friendly and helpful.

I loved this place until this visit. The guys at the meat counter refused to help me or any other shopper. 15 people in two different lines. I just set my cart down and walked off. I dont think Ill be coming back here again. I really liked this store. Im very disappointed

This is my go to place for the right ingredients to make Asian dishes. The meats and vegetables are fresh and if you havent been here I highly recommend you do. The staff is helpful and the bathroom is clean.

Review №13

I absolutely hate shopping here. First let me start by saying that everything is over priced compared to the other stores nearby(sauce ,noodles,vegetables,.....) also compare to their own store at denver. The way they organized the store is very confusing and you need to know exactly where your recipe is originated from to be able to find what you need. Everything is basically all over the place and even employees have no idea where to find some products. I will never go back here.

Great selection of goods. Found everything I needed to make a few Korean dishes. The checkout area is oddly designed, with not enough space to fit carts. Staff was friendly.

Review №15

My husband and I used to love this place until today. We waited at “no fish cleaning” lane for 40 minutes before a staff greeted us. They were not even busy. Staff made eye contacts with us but chose to ignore. They used to be very organized, one lane for fish cleaning & fry service another lane for weighting & packing only. I don’t know what’s wrong with the new seafood team.

Hands down my favorite super market. Cultural differences discourage concersing with most of the staff but the checkers are super helpful and friendly.Have had great experiences with an exception of the one cashier who insisted she was closing when I was simply walking through her station to go grab a buggy. I found her attitude extremely nasty and her comments and tone super unhelpful and unprofessional.Still my favorite place to shop for fresh seafood among other things

I love getting lost in the aisles of this place-- one second youre finding Jamaican peanut soda, another youre grabbing fresh noodles from among a dozen varieties, next youre stumbling across amazing Japanese curry flavored cheetos. Great produce, great deli-style buns and sushi. Plus they carry Sweet Action ice cream. A wonderful store!

Review №20

Great alternative to Saigon District down Denver for your international food needs. They carry a wide assortment of ready to eat foods like spring rolls and sushi to roasted pork and Peking duck. I primarily come here for pork, beef and vegetables. If you’re in Aurora and looking for a market that caters internationally, look no further. I do recommend Pacific Ocean Market. 5/5

Lots of food choices, u believe part of national chain. Although the Korean section was a bit empty of options.Was stopped by staff and told I couldnt take my bag inside due to store policy. I politely declined as I had previously just arrived in Denver off a flight and this was everything I had. They were understanding and I continued to shop.

Really good customer service. A mistake happened when ringing up one of my items and they fixed it so quick. They offer all kinds of items with pretty reasonable prices. The store is really clean and well lit. The meat section is well kept. Good prices on bones if you like making your own bone broth! If you need help learning how to use chopsticks, they have really cute learning ones!

Review №33

The store is relatively clean with a wide variety of products. My review reduced the stars to just 2 specifically because of the deli counter. We do not live in Denver, so when we go to POM its a special trip for my wife to get the char siu pork from the deli counter. The hours posted at the deli specifically state they are open until 7pm. On our last 2 visits the deli has been cleared out and closed before 6:30pm. Yes, within the final hours of posted operations, but the deli is supposed to be open ...and they are not. My wife was very disappointed. Stick to your hours, or lose customers. You have lost us as customers. We will boycott the POM on Mississippi for a year, because it fails to live up to its posted hours.

The worst place to buy food. Sells rotten things especially vagies and fish. They refuse refund when ask for. Dont buy here and recommend anyone who buy to stop shopping here. It is not clean. I am never coming here.

Review №36

I gave 4 stars initially but Ill have to remove two stars due to the following event that happened today.My mom purchased some groceries and she realized her bag of rice was overcharged. She went inside the store to get her money back, the cashier knew it was her fault yet she never apologized, and even gave my mom attitude. She gave gave my mom torn/worn out cash that no one would even accept and then has the audacity to slam a bunch of quarters on the counter infront of her.This is the first time we experienced this and I hope it will be the last.Great place to shop, not so great customer service.

This place has got it all if youre looking for Asian food stuff. Great selection of ethnic foods, mostly from Asia but includes some from African nations too. Food counter has a good selection of ready to eat like Viet dishes, fresh sushi, sandwiches. Service and checkout have gotten much better. | Its shelves are stuff with so many varieties that you can literally spend half a day here just to peruse. Oh yeah, my favorite part of the store is the International Market section. From fresh served sushi to fresh pre-packed dishes to pots/pans/utensils for home and commercial kitchens, they also sell fluffy Korean style blankets!

My wife and I usually have good experiences here. But the service at the fish counter over 4th of July weekend was terrible. 2 workers behind the counter were very rude with each customer, slow and did not care. It seemed that each customer was bothering them. Also, taking customers out of line was frustrating when people had been waiting 30 to 40 minutes. We will probably just go to H-Mart from now on.

If you are new to Denver or just didnt know about this hidden gem, you must visit this place. There is a local seafood and meat market. This store represents the Asian cuisine as well as carrying spices, teas, and sauces from the Caribbean, India, and Mexico. I love shopping here for my important spices and fish. I also purchase my coffee. There are a rainbow of people that shop here.

This is the place for fresh, authentic, exotic produce, meat, spices & many other food items from multiple cultures. When you want to use the exact ingredients to your international recipe, shop here. I always allow extra time when visiting, just to browse the aisles. There are so many products & foods to see & taste.The staff seems overworked, therefore preoccupied and the prices are very reasonable. The store is well stocked & clean.They have breakfast and lunch specials at the deli as well.

Be aware of fake product. Purchased soy sauce and the strong alkali taste after add into the meals.Have no choice but trash them. Purchased another bottle of vinegar several months ago and Im pretty sure the product is fake too. Strong chemistry taste feel like acetic acid with water. Dont bother shopping Pacific ocean

Review №96

I like the store and large selections. I wish Asian markets would do a better job at cleanliness. Especially during this time. I won’t order the food already made anymore. Every time I order a sandwich the lady never changes her gloves after cleaning dishes, wiping stuff down, touching everything including her mask then touches the meat with those gloves. It’s disgusting and a simple thing to do. I always just leave my sandwich or throw it away. I finally told her that she needs to change her gloves and her response “all the customers never say anything and it’s ok”. Wow! Just wow! Just imagine what we can’t see when it comes to the food being cooked. This is at the Aurora store.
